When writing sales copy, you need to consider what response or action you want your reader to take.

To do this you need to talk to your reader on a personal level, get them emotionally involved in and draw them in through the power of your words.

Paint a picture of what your product or service will do for them and then anticipate and answer all of their questions and doubts before they have a chance raise them.
